Why is Indira Ekadashi on Thu 8 Oct in Sevan?

Indira Ekadashi is on Thu 8 Oct: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.

Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 15:39.

Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 15:39 Wed to 17:43.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). Band: the tithi. Box: Arunodaya. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Thu 8 Oct only, at 07:02: Thu 8 Oct. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 15:39 Wed, before it (05:26–07:02).

Breaking the fast

Smarta · Vaishnava · Fri 9 Oct, 07:03–18:30 (sunset, Tithika’s convention)

Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 17:43 on Thu 8 Oct to 20:09 on Fri 9 Oct; harivasara ends at 00:19. So parana runs from sunrise on Fri 9 Oct, 07:03. Parana is a day act, so Tithika ends the window at sunset, 18:30: Tithika’s convention. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 09:21.

The rule

Ashwina Krishna Ekadashi (purnimanta) · Bhadrapada Krishna Ekadashi (amanta)

The Ekadashi fast runs from sunrise until parana the next day.

Smarta: Ekadashi at sunrise; over two sunrises the first, or the second when Dwadashi grows too; with none, the day it is current (Nirnayasindhu).
Vaishnava: Ekadashi through arunodaya, the 96 minutes before sunrise, unpierced by Dashami; over two sunrises, the second.
Breaking the fast: on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara).
